Choices of liquids



Recommended Posts

I'm have a time with the choices of Soups that will help me through my 2 weeks PO sleeve. I have been drinking low sodium chicken broth, no sugar popsicles and Jello, Gatorade, Water, and Protein Shakes. I was wondering if I added Tomato Soup, in there to give myself a different choice, would it be wise? Another thing how do you take down the 64 ozs without feeling too full. #POSLEEVEDAY5 #DOWN9LBS

8 days PO... Tomato Soup is awesome but not according to my new gut. I can't keep it in. Everyone is different. Just try them all until you find what works.

Hey Ed! That Tomato Soup didn't work for me either after taking in 3-4 tablespoons! So I stopped and got me a 1/2 Water 1/2 Protein Shake. Egg drop Soup holds down pretty well. I' PO day 7 today.

Hey Zombie! I spoke with my surgeon's nurse and explained to her that the most I was able to get down was 40+/- and she explained to me that I should strive for the 64, but if 35-45 was all I could tolerate, just to work it in little at a time and slow sips of course. I'm PO 7 days today. I did my 1st-mile walk today, and I have been able to get down 54 ozs on yesterday, shooting for the 64 today, still working, but I might not make the 64 oz marker today, but I am working on it. Keep striving. Use the drink reminder so you can at least try every 15 minutes or so. Keep pushing!! We are all in this together! 💪

Well, guys after diluting the Campbell's Tomato Soup, my belly did not like it after the 3rd or 4th tablespoon, so yeah, I discarded it as well. I will just stick and duke out this next 7 days like a "G"! I got some egg drop Soup, and I made veggie soup today for the family, but I will still hold off on taking any of the juices in. I am still trying to get the 64 ozs completed. I did complete my 1-mile walk today, as my goal was set for today. 11 oz Protein Shake, and Water for the rest of the day for me!!

Tomato Soup may be to acidic for your new stomach. High in carbs and sugar. Try low sodium chicken Soup and strain out the broth to drink and give the rest to the family or dog.

I did Campbell’s Tomato, I cooked it with milk instead of Water and then strained it. Drank 4oz per day and no dumping

A Minor Miracle, Campbell's Tomato Soup is legendary for its HIGH carb content! Most people seem to dump like a 🚚 Truck.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
